    Why can't all interviewers be this apt at conducting interviews? He is really good! Well crafted questions presented with personal flare, then he graciously steps aside and allows the interviewee to completely express themselves without interrupting.

      @Mr Lopez How certain are you that that's true, on a scale of 100, if 50 is a wild guess and you could just as easily be wrong and 100 is an absolute and unquestioning conviction (and anything below 50 is saying the opposite of what you think)?

      @Mr Lopez Virtue signalling is a term that's lost all meaning because you can't magically tell what someone true intent is. We really are living and post-intellectual society.

      I understand that so much plus it's the looks or comments you get because you sometimes look okay but I suffer from Anxiety, Depression, Stress which is causing other health problems. I have a chronic back problem which I'm on multiple medications for which of course cause their own problems but because I put on a brave face & I can still walk luckily as I was almost paralysed but I had emergency surgery in 2017. I still suffer from pain every day the surgery stopped me from being paralysed but I still have Arthritis in my spine plus spasms all the time, I have always been a stubborn person though so I grit my teeth & get on with it. I make sure I get myself looking ok if I have to go out but that means hiding the dry skin that covers my face, wrapping up so people don't judge how much weight I have lost which is something I am struggling with as I eat but due to the stress which is due to some personal issues I have migraines & I have lost weight. I hate my body right now even though I've always been a slim person I don't want to be this skinny, I eat meals & I drink meal replacement shakes on top but I don't put anything on due to the stress I'm hoping once the personal issue is resolved I can start focusing on my health more but until then I'm stuck. I will always have the chronic pain but that's something I've learned to deal with, but people assume I'm a healthy person when they see me because I hide my problems due to fear of being judged which is wrong we shouldn't be doing this to ourselves we really are our biggest bully sometimes. Sorry for the long reply I know your comment is a year ago but I understand, I hope you're doing okay during this difficult time sending you love, positive thoughts & best wishes for the future 💛 stay safe.

    I feel so lonely and I have felt like that for most of my life, I was doing okay and great for months now this sudden hurt was surprising to me
    hearing out Jameela's message at the end just had me breaking into tears, I feel better and I think I can do the work I planned for today now

    This is what I needed to hear right now. I've been feeling lonely and I'm embarrassed to tell anyone about it. Loneliness can cause you to become socially awkward that it's hard to even have a conversation with a teller. I'm definitely going to take Jameela's advice and go adventure out and make new friends. Also, I need to learn how to take about the loneliness that I feel too. Jameela is right, it's not healthy to keep bottling up. Thank you Jameela!

    • @samramajeed5315
      @samramajeed5315 Před 17 dny

      Yes ❤ and meanwhile accept if people doesn't like you or go on in terms of friendship remind yourself time and time that you are not the problem 😊😊😊
      As I did that I went out I tried to make friends but felt more worse because I couldn't get like minded people and now I am accepting that and am at much better place emotionally. Sometimes life put you through challenges that make you unique so try to understand your journey and find peace within believe me one day the world will search for you ❤

    I’m sad and lonely. But I know of worse cases of literally suicidal levels of isolation and depression. So I feel guilty if I try to express these negative emotions, I feel like I tell myself “you don’t deserve to feel bad. Look at all the bad cases of people feeling sad and killing themselves. Your case isn’t even that bad. You shouldn’t deserve to feel bad”. And then it swells up inside me. The only way I can get a little bit of it off my chest is to make depression and lonely jokes so to release the stress without others worrying about me. I feel like if others know I’d be either shunned or sent to professional help, which I feel I don’t need. And it’d be awkward if my few friends suddenly saw me as a person with a disorder rather than just me.

    • @janus1936
      @janus1936 Před 4 lety +3

      Don't compare your pain to others, if you can. You are sad, and lonely, and those are real problems! Sure, some people have it worse, but you could say that about almost everyone on earth! Suffering is not a competition, and it is okay to feel the way you do. Don't feel bad about opening up, because it can really help your mental health! Plus, by you opening up it lets your friends know that they can talk about their feelings as well! It is a win-win scenario!
      Everyone feels this way sometimes, even those who seem the happiest. It is okay to open up, because your real friends will stick beside you no matter what. You are loved, and anyone who tries to say otherwise is a liar

    • @bianchang4278

      Danielle but I’m like not sad all the time. Like I have 2-3 minutes of sadness and the shivering and the weird feeling running through my chest and thinking about how I wish I wasn’t so lonely then after that I get distracted by something else and then the feeling goes away. Then a few days later it happens again and the cycle starts again. And I’m not unmotivated to do things Nor am I like constantly wallowing in my own sadness.

Talking to just one friendly pair of ears can really help to find the reasons for your lonely feelings, and self understanding can lead to your own positive actions towards more happiness.

    0:52 Jamila, I'm 27 and never had my first kiss/peck. Be proud of the fact that no one kissed you. Not only is kissing before marriage forbidden in Islam, but a lot of people get emotionally attached to the fist person they kiss.
    Which Is even more of a burden, if you deal with that while being under 21. Just like you don't want to be weighed by males standards for women, I don't think it's fair for anyone to be valued by the first person they swapped spit with. 💁‍♀️
    Whatever anyone's beliefs are, people under the age of 25 are still figuring things out. They they're not fully mentally mature, nor do they have enough life experience compared to someone 25 and over.
    I noticed 11-12 year old girls put more importance on having their first kiss, rather then having 10/10 marks on their school work. They even see kissing as more important, then being good at extra circricular activities.
    I know this, because I'm born in England and my friends of all religions and cultural backgrounds, thought like this 💁‍♀️. While all the boys, aimed to get at least average marks on school work, and be fantastic at football. After that, then they thought about girls.
    To anyone of any belief, who's had their first kiss before the age of 25 no hate. But if you've never been kissed, don't self deprecate. 🙄
